Chapter 313: Declaration of War
Seeing that Liu Xie was actually angry with Concubine Ming for himself, Ma Chao felt very embarrassed, and wanted to kneel to make amends, but was stopped by Liu Xie and said, "Meng Qi is exempt." ”
Ma Chao said: "Your Majesty is angry, Weichen is insignificant, Your Majesty must not spoil the mother's affection for Weichen." ”
"Fart!" Liu Xie said: "If she wants to love me, she must learn to respect me, and if she respects me, she must respect my generals, and Meng Qi does not need to defend her." ”
Ming Yuexiang knelt on the ground, lowered her head and didn't dare to speak again, only sobbing in a low voice. Liu Xie watched her cry, his anger was a little less, and he personally went to help her.
Ming Yuexiang stubbornly withdrew her hand, otherwise she would help.
Liu Xie said: "Concubine Ming, I was in a hurry just now, don't hold a grudge against me." You must know that my country is all won by these generals with their lives. I still want them to continue to work for me in the future, and you say that you are so rude to them, is it appropriate? You say that you are a Japanese man with this habit, and that's because you Japanese are not civilized, and my Han doesn't have this kind of bad problem. In our Han army, officers and soldiers are equal. And what Meng Qi just said was not wrong. ”
Mingyuexiang still can't get up.
"It's almost over," Liu Xie said and pulled her up, "You are a real concubine now, and you will have to adapt to my Han etiquette in the future, understand?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The episode passed quickly, and it didn't take long for Ming Yuexiang to reconcile with Liu Xie.
However, it is said that the warship fleet has been stationed on the sea not far from the coastline of Wajima. By the third day, a large number of small boats had gathered on the beach.
Liu Xie also planned to take anchor and return to the sea on the third day, but at this time, when he saw that there were so many small boats gathered on the shore, he felt puzzled, ordered to go down, ordered the fleet not to leave for the time being, raised vigilance, and saw what the Japanese were going to do.
Liu Xie was in the cockpit, looking at the small boats on the shore, there were more than a hundred in total, and there were more than a dozen slightly larger sailboats. Liu Xie sat in the cockpit and waited for the changes on the shore.
Moreover, there were many people gathered on the shore, such as soldiers, with knives, forks and bows and arrows in their hands, and Liu Xie asked the sailors to prepare bows and arrows at any time to deal with a sudden attack that the Japanese might launch.
When Liu Xie came out this time, he brought two generals, one was Zhao Yun and the other was Ma Chao, and the strategist didn't bring one, so he could only discuss with the two of them at the moment.
Liu Xie asked: "You two see, will they launch a surprise attack?" ”
Zhao Yun said: "It's not a level, they won't be stupid to hit a stone with an egg, right?" ”
Ma Chao said: "I don't think so, sometimes if people are stupid, they have to do it even every day." ”
When Liu Xie heard him say this, he couldn't help laughing. The two of them were confused, not knowing why he was laughing.
Liu Xie said: "Meng Qi, when you say this, I can't help but suddenly think of a person, what do you guess its name?" ”
"I don't know."
"His name is Zhao Rtian!"
Ma Chao said: "This name is too crazy, isn't it?" ”
Liu Xie said: "Yes, this is called not knowing the sky and the earth is thick, so it is completely possible that you just said that they may attack us." You're right, some people are so stupid that they dare to do it! Let's wait and see. ”
Liu Xie said, and said to the captain: "Spread my will, order everyone in the fleet, not to release arrows first, not to get off the ship, keep an eye on the shore, as long as they dare to move first, we will fight back, and we will him hard!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The captain said that, and began to have the herald issue flags to the other ships.
In this way, the Han ships have been waiting, and there has been no movement on the third day, but the Japanese have been gathering. On the morning of the fourth day, things changed.
A small boat came to the fleet, and several Japanese came to the fleet and shouted in the ancient Japanese language: "We are messengers, and we want to speak to your commander." ”
Liu Xie said with a smile: "I actually want to come to talk to me, it's interesting, hang them up, don't carry weapons, I summoned them on the deck." ”
Liu Xie took Zhao Yun and Ma Chao to the deck and waited for the envoys to board the ship. Since they were ironclad ships, the sides of the ships were particularly high, and they had to be hoisted up with slings.
When the messengers came up, they did not kneel, but one of them held his head high and said in a high-spirited manner, "Which of you is in charge?" ”
Zhao Yun said angrily: "Presumptuous, see ......"
Liu Xie hurriedly stopped and said: "Those who don't know don't blame, Zilong is angry, and see what he says." ”
The messenger said, "You have all seen, we have more than a hundred ships, and if they come over, you will be powdered!" ”
Liu Xie asked, "Then what do you want?" ”
The messenger said, "There are ships on both sides, and they will surround them in a while, and if you surrender and disembark, you will not die." ”
"Or else?" Liu Xie asked with a smile.
"Or else? Otherwise......" cried the messenger, "or I will shoot you with arrows!" ”
Liu Xie smiled: "I want to give you a word: weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, arrogance is." ”
(Note: The words are from "The Three-Body Problem.") )
The messenger looked confused, not understanding the meaning of this sentence. Liu Xie didn't explain, and said: "You go back, I won't hold you accountable for your rudeness, and tell your leader that my fleet is here and won't leave, just come." ”
"You, you've thought about it!" The envoy pointed at Liu Xie and said.
"I've thought about it, come here, send them down. Wait a minute. ”
The four messengers all stopped, and the leading messenger asked, "What's the matter, are you afraid?" Repented? ”
Liu Xie smiled and said, "I want to know which finger you pointed at me just now." ”
The leader of the society stretched out his right hand and asked, "How, how?" Why do you ask this? ”
With that, he retracted his finger again.
Liu Xie said: "It seems that it is this finger, come here, tie it up, and chop off his finger!" ”
Immediately a soldier came up and tied him up, and the messenger cried, and one of the soldiers drew his sword, and as soon as he went down, he cut off his index finger.
The messenger screamed in pain, and Liu Xie came to him and said, "In the Han world, no one dares to face me so rampantly, you are the first." Let you learn a lesson, go back! ”
Four messengers were sent off the ship.
Liu Xie watched them go and ordered: "All artillery enter the gun position, lower the muzzle, and prepare for shelling!" ”
The order began to be heard.
He went straight to the boat carrying the four messengers, and at noon more than a hundred small boats began to sail all over.
Liu Xie ordered: "Call the historian to come over and record it, in the thirteenth year of the Milky Way, the Japanese attacked the Han army and declared war on our Han Dynasty." Our Han army was forced to counterattack! ”
The historian was writing with a pen on the side.
